THE NEWS
THE NEWS GOES SOME THING LIKE THIS, I FIRE AN IDEA ACROSS YOUR BOW AND WAIT FOR RETURN FIRE, WHEN RETURN FIRE OCCURS CONTINUE VOLLEY UNTIL A BETTER IDEA IS CREATED. GET- IT - GOT - IT - GOOOD >>>>>>
TRASH
(problem)
TONIGHT WE ARE GOING TO BE TALKING TRASH, WE GOT LOTS AND IT'S NOT IN THE RIGHT SPOTS.
THE NIGHTLY IDEA / ZINGER,
( possible solution ?)
INTRODUCTION
IF I WAS TO CHOSE, I WOULD CHOSE A ADVENTURE,
AN ADVENTURE IS THE STRAIGHTEST PATH TO KNOWLEDGE,
YOU MEET WHO EVER GOD IS TO YOU,
OLD USED UP IDEAS FALL AWAY,
THE WORLD IS FRESH,
IF I WAS TO CHANGE THE WORLD I WOULD MAKE IT AN ADVENTURE,
EVERY ADVENTURER CLAIMS THE WORLD AS THEIR OWN, TO THEM IT'S.
IDEA PHASE 1
SOME TIME, LOOK ALONG THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, WHAT DO YOU SEE????
TRASH, RUBBISH,JUNK,CRAP, BABY DIPPERS,CIGARETTES, PLASTIC EVERY THING,CELL PHONES, DRINKING STRAWS ,BILLIONS OF DRINKING STRAWS,LIGHTERS,PLASTIC SODA BOTTLES AND ALUMINUM CANS. +++
WELL THAT IS WHAT I USE FOR TRAVELING FUNDS,FOOD AND NECESSARY ITEMS.
WHEN I WAS BUILDING MY BOAT, I RAN OUT OF MONEY, FAR FROM FINISHED,
I LOOKED TO THE RESOURCES AVAILABLE AROUND ME TO FILL THE GAP.
I FOUND THE ALUMINUM CAN, MANY IN FACT, I LOOKED FOR PATTERNS,
LOOKING FOR WHERE THE MOST ALUMINUM CANS COULD BE FOUND,
I WAS WORKING ALONG HIGHWAY 20 THAT FOLOWS THE MISSISSIPPI NORTH AND SOUTH,
EVERY TIME I CAME CLOSE TO A RECREATION AREA I WOULD FIND TRASH AND ALUMINUM CANS. ( CAMPGROUND,BOAT RAMP,ECT.)
AS FAR AS I CAN FIGURE, SOME GUY PULLS OUT OF A CAMPGROUND
ON TO HIGHWAY 20 ,NORTH OR SOUTH, FINISHES HIS BEER AND TOSSES HIS EMPTY CAN OUT THE WINDOW,
TO ME THIS IS MONEY ON THE PORCH, RIGHT NEXT TO WHERE I MIGHT BE SLEEPING, THE CAMP GROUND,SHOWERS AND ALL.....COOL I'M IN.
OTHER PLACES YOU CAN FIND HIGHER DENSITY'S OF ALUMINUM CANS, ARE ON-RAMPS TO MAJOR FREEWAYS FROM RURAL ROADS, LARGE PULL OUTS, AND BEACHES ALONG RIVERS.
SAD BUT TRUE I PICK MY MONEY UP IN PARADISE.. HA..HA..L O L.
MORE TOMORROW,HAD TO WORK TODAY,HANDY MAN FOR A FRIEND.
GOOD NIGHT.

five years ago i was listening to the radio, a doctor in math and sociology, was talking,
she said " it only takes ten nobel men to change the world in one generation" i was baffled.
i asked my self a question, "what is noble", this question has taken me far , down rivers,
through a thousand books,rock quarries, small towns, coffee shops, time spent with hundreds of people, a gentle observation of humanity . I now know what noble means, continued enriching action, substance within and focus.

_________________introduction______________________
---This is a introduction to a series of story's, my travels as a
homeless person, seeking peace with in my mind,
searching to find the humility to understand and know,
these are my travels.
Please comment on these story's,
to me they have been adventure quests,
they gave me a profound sense of awareness,
the identity of an observer,
peace and awe.
I am still traveling.......
These adventures are born of hunches and suspicion's and
a fewattempts at flying that ended badly.
ha ha it happens.
This will be a running story of the present,
future and past with reflections and moments of clarity.
_____This is a summery of my first adventure -______
On the shores of the Mississippi,near muscatine,Iowa,
a boat was borne, her name was "Ardent Equanimity".
I built my boat out of pallets and plywood and lumber i
found washed up on islands in the Mississippi river.
I soon ran out of money, i collected aluminum cans to
pay for screws and glue to put the boat together,
eating peanut butter and honey, i spent the summer
in the arms of nature,it freed my mind.
me and my boat traveled 200 miles to Hannibal, Mosuri,
the home of Mark Twain,
i was received well and made many friends.
when i go to Hannibal,i go home.
